Funny rotation differences between Quaternion wxyz and xyz Euler
I'd stick to the default setting - Euler XYZ. There may be nothing wrong with the quaternion button. Quaternion numbers are 'complex numbers' - I don't follow the concept, but they're 4D (ergo the W next to XYZ). That's probably mucking up calculations and data that were amassed and made to function in a 3D space.
